Eggleston
Eggleston is a village in County Durham, in England. It is situated in Teesdale, a few miles north-west of Barnard Castle.〔http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/place/3006〕 ==Etymology==
The second element of ''Eggleston'' is Old English ''tün'', 'enclosure, estate, settlement'. The first element could be the Cumbric word represented today by Welsh ''eglwys'' 'church'. However, the first element could also be from the Old Norse personal name ''Egill'' or an Anglo-Saxon personal name like ''Ecgwulf'' or ''Ecgel'', in which case the name means 'Ecgel's estate'.〔Bethany Fox, 'The P-Celtic Place-Names of North-East England and South-East Scotland', The Heroic Age, 10 (2007), http://www.heroicage.org/issues/10/fox.html (appendix at http://www.heroicage.org/issues/10/fox-appendix.html).〕
